Ocean Signal Grab Bag – Purpose-Built for Safety at Sea
When emergencies happen offshore, every second counts. The Ocean Signal Grab Bag is purpose-built to help you stay prepared and respond quickly, giving you a secure, easy-to-access place to store your essential safety equipment. Whether you’re a coastal cruiser or heading offshore, a dedicated grab bag can be the difference between panic and preparedness.
Designed in collaboration between the Ocean Signal Engineering team and a professional sailor and bag designer based in Southampton, UK, the Ocean Signal Grab Bag is shaped by real-world experience. It’s compact enough to stow in the tightest of spaces on board but spacious enough to carry your vital emergency gear—EPIRBs, PLBs, VHF radios, flares, and more.
